How Lunera Works
Share your vision in minutes. We back idea and pre‑seed founders, so ambition matters more than a perfect deck.

We reply within 1 week and schedule a relaxed conversation. Together we’ll explore your vision, progress, and goals.

You’ll get candid, actionable feedback either way - it’s a collaboration, not a test.
We back idea‑stage and pre‑seed founders up to $50k cheque.

Plus targeted intros to investors, operators, mentors, and early customers, even if we don’t invest.
You’re in the circle whether we invest or not.

Expect ongoing guidance, shared resources, and a supportive founder community to keep you moving from first idea to real traction.
FAQ
Who is Lunera for?
chevron down icon
Ambitious founders at the idea & pre‑seed stage. Come with a problem worth solving, a sharp insight, and the drive to test quickly - perfect deck optional.
Do I need traction or a product to apply?
chevron down icon
No. Idea‑stage founders are welcome. We look for clear insight, a believable wedge, and a plan to validate fast. If you have a prototype or early users, great - but it’s not required.
What sectors do you invest in?
chevron down icon
We’re sector‑flexible and back founders where our help matters most - early GTM design, validation loops, and customer development. If your path to traction is testable, we want to see it.
What happens if you don’t invest?
chevron down icon
Founders still leave with specific feedback, targeted intros (where appropriate), and access to community resources so you can keep moving. Every founder gets value—invested or not.
What’s the application process?
chevron down icon
Apply → Interview → Decision → Community.

How quickly do you decide?

We aim for fast, transparent turnaround. If we need more signal, we’ll tell you exactly what experiment or customer conversation would unlock a decision.
